Lambda Computer Products competed for and won a contract to produce two prototype units of a new type of computer that is based on laser optics rather than on electronic binary bits. The first unit produced by Lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies. The second unit took 4,250 hours and used $237,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies. Labor is $20 per hour. Use Exhibit 6.5. a. Lambda was asked to present a bid for 10 additional units as soon as the second unit was completed. Production would start immediately. What would this bid be
Answers
Answer:
$2,731,672.50
Explanation:
first unit produced by lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies
the second unit took 4,250 hours and used $238,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies
learning rate = time needed to produce second unit / time needed to produce first unit = 4,250 hours / 5,000 hours = 85%
materials and equipment usage rate = $237,500 / $250,000 = 95%
using the attached table of cumulative values, we can determine the cumulative improvement factors needed to solve this question:
Lambda's accumulated cost for producing 10 more computers
work hours = 4,250 x 7.116 (85% and 10 units) x $20 per hour = $604,860materials and equipment = $238,500 x 8.955 (95% and 10 units) = $2,126,812.50total = $604,860 + $2,126,812.50 = $2,731,672.50

Tuition of $3400 is due when the spring term begins, in 4 months. What amount should a student deposit today, at 12%, to have enough to pay tuition
Answers
Answer: The student should deposit= $3,272.40
Explanation:
The formula we need to use is
FV = P ( 1 + rt )
where:
F V = the future value.
P = the principal amount.
r= the rate of interest. = `12%= 0.12
t= time in years. = 4/12= 1/3 =O.3333
FV = P ( 1 + rt )
$3,400 = P (1 + 0.12 X 0.3333)
$3,400 = P (1 + 0.039)
$3,400 = P (1.039)
P= 3400 /1.039= $3,272.40
Problem 5-35 Comparing Cash Flow Streams [LO 1] You’ve just joined the investment banking firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe. They’ve offered you two different salary arrangements. You can have $8,200 per month for the next two years, or you can have $6,900 per month for the next two years, along with a $37,000 signing bonus today. Assume the interest rate is 6 percent compounded monthly. Requirement 1: If you take the first option, $8,200 per month for two years, what is the present value? (Enter rounded answer as directed, but do not use rounded numbers in intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).) Present value $ 139912.93 Requirement 2: What is the present value of the second option?
Answers
Answer:
PV of 1st option = $185,015.50
PV of 2nd option = $192,683.78
Explanation:
Computing the present value of the monthly payments, we use the formula [tex]PV = \frac{A(1-(1+r)^{-n}) }{r}[/tex]
Where PV = present value of the monthly payments
A = monthly salary
r = monthly interest rate = 6%/12 = 0.5% = 0.005
n = number of months = 24 months
PV of the 1st option, $8,200 monthly for the next 2 year
[tex]PV = \frac{8,200(1-(1.005)^{-24}) }{0.005}[/tex] = $185,015.50.
PV of the 2ns option, $6,900 monthly + $37,000 signing bonus
[tex]PV = \frac{6,900(1-(1.005)^{-24}) }{0.005}+37,000[/tex] = $155,683.78 + $37,000 = $192,683.78.

1. $6,000 Section 1231 loss.
2. $6,000 ordinary loss.
3. $6,000 short-term capital loss.
4. $6,000 long-term capital loss.
Answers
Answer: $6000 short term Capital loss
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that on May 1, 2018, Kelalani purchased land for $88,000 for use in her business and that she sold it on May 1, 2019, for $82,000.
We are further told that there are no other sales of business or trade property. Based on this scenario, the loss treated for tax purposes on Kelalani's return will be a short term capital loss of $6000($88,000 - $82,000). It is a short term capital loss because the loss is for a period of a year or less.

Answers
Answer and Explanation:
Given interest rate =10%
Repayment months= 48 months,
Interest rate =10% for 48 monthsv
To calculate annual percentage rate,
The annual percentage rate = 2 * repayment months* interest rate divided by repayment months + 1
Annual percentage rate= 2*48*10%/48+1
=2*48*0.10/49
= 96*0.10/49
= 9.6/49= 0.1959= 19.59%
Therefore annual percentage rate = 19.59%

By the end of 2022, Humanity International has the benefit of hindsight to know that estimates of uncollectible accounts in 2021 were too high. How did this overestimation affect the reported amounts of total assets and expenses at the end of 2021
Answers
Answer:
Humanity International
The overestimation of the uncollectible accounts in 2021 reduced the reported amount of total assets and increased the total amount of expenses at the end of 2021.
Explanation:
When the uncollectible accounts in 2021 were overestimated, the uncollectible expense for the year was also overestimated. This increased the total amount of expenses for that year. In turn, the total amount of assets was decreased since the uncollectible allowance is usually deducted from an element of the assets (Accounts Receivable).

If the elasticity of demand for college textbooks is -0.1, and the price of textbooks increases by 20%, how much will the quantity demanded change, and in what direction
Answers
Answer:
The quantity demanded will decrease by 2%.
Explanation:
This can be determined using the elasticity formula as follows:
e = Percentage change in quantity demanded change / Percentage change in price ........ (1)
Where;
e = elasticity of demand for college textbooks = -0.1
Percentage change in quantity demanded change = ?
Percentage change in price = 20%
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for Percentage change in quantity demanded change
-0.1 = Percentage change in quantity demanded change / 20%
Percentage change in quantity demanded change = -0.1 * 20% = -0.02, or -2%
Since the Percentage change in quantity demanded change is negative 2%, it implies that the quantity demanded will decrease by 2%.

(Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answers
Answer:
there are no cash flows given, so I will use another question as an example:
NCF year 0 = -$1,150,000
NCF year 1 = $275,000
NCF year 2 = $275,000
NCF year 3 = $275,000
NCF year 4 = $275,000
NCF year 5 = $275,000
NCF year 6 = $275,000
NCF year 7 = $275,000
a) when cash flows are the same for all the years, you can use an ordinary annuity factor:
PV = $275,000 x 4.86842 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 7 periods) = $1,338,815.50
NPV = -$1,150,000 + $1,338,815.50 = $188,815.50
b) PV = $275,000 x 3.81153 (PV annuity factor, 18%, 7 periods) = $1,048,170.75
NPV = -$1,150,000 + $1,048,170.75 = -$101,829.25
c) PV = $275,000 x 3.24232 (PV annuity factor, 18%, 7 periods) = $891,638
NPV = -$1,150,000 + $891,638 = -$258,362
If the cash flows are different, then you must discount each cash flow individually.
E.g. NCF year 0 = -$150,000
NCF year 1 = $75,000
NCF year 2 = $85,000
NCF year 3 = $95,000
NPV = -$150,000 + $75,000/1.1 + $85,000/1.1² + $95,000/1.1³ = $59,804.66

Explanation:
we can use the future value formula to calculate the expected rate of return:
future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ
future value = $25,000 x 3 = $75,000present value = $25,000n = 6$75,000 = $25,000 x (1 + r)⁶
(1 + r)⁶ = $75,000 / $25,000 = 3
⁶√(1 + r)⁶ = ⁶√3
1 + r = 1.2009
r = 0.2009 = 20.09%

b. $6,500
c. $1,500
d. $1,000
Answers
Answer:
$1,500
Explanation:
A business buys $5000 worth of resources resources to produce a good
The business makes 100 unit of of the good and sell each for $65
Therefore the value added by the business to the product can be calculated as follows
= $65×100
= $6500
$6,500-$5,000
= $1,500
Hence the value added by the business to the product is $1,500

Answer:
Almost the entire question is missing, so I looked it up:
Your firm is contemplating the purchase of a new $615,000 computer-based order entry system. The system will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its five-year life. It will be worth $67,000 at the end of that time. You will save $245,000 before taxes per year in order processing costs, and you will be able to reduce working capital by $82,000 (this is a one-time reduction). If the tax rate is 30 percent, what is the IRR for this project?
depreciation expense per year = $615,000 / 5 = $123,000
initial outlay = -$615,000 + $82,000 = -$533,000
NCF year 1 = [($245,000 - $123,000) x 70%] + $123,000 = $208,400
NCF year 2 = [($245,000 - $123,000) x 70%] + $123,000 = $208,400
NCF year 3 = [($245,000 - $123,000) x 70%] + $123,000 = $208,400
NCF year 4 = [($245,000 - $123,000) x 70%] + $123,000 = $208,400
NCF year 5 = [($245,000 - $123,000) x 70%] + $123,000 + ($67,000 x 70%) = $255,300

The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Contribution = Sales - Variable Expenses
And,
PV Ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales
So, PV Ratio of C90B is
= ($24,000 - $6,480) ÷ $24,000
= 73%
And PV Ratio of Y45E is
= ($29,000 - $11,010) ÷ ($29,000)
= 62.03%
It increases in overall PV ratio also overall contribution would be more that reduced the break even point

June 10 150 units 585 ($3.9)
June 15 150 units 610 ($4.067)
June 28 100 units 520 ($5.2)
A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 240 units on hand.
First, we need to calculate the number of units sold:
Units sold= total units - units in ending inventory
Units sold= 500 - 240= 260
To calculate the cost of goods sold under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory.
COGS= 100*3.6 + 150*3.9 + 10*4.067
COGS= $985.67
Joe Jones, Inc. has a beta of .85. The risk-free rate is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10%. a. Compute the required return for Joe Jones using the security market line (SML) equation.
Answers
Answer: 9.25%
Explanation:
Risk free rate, Rf = 5% = 0.05
We then subtract the risk free rate of 5% from the expected date of return on market portfolio of 10%. This will be:
= 10% - 5% = 5%
Beta = 0.85
Required return will now be:
= Rf + (Rm-Rf) x Beta
= 5% + (5% × 0.85)
= 5% + 4.25%
= 9.25%
The Heinlein and Krampf Investment firm has just been instructed by one of its clients to invest $250,000 for her money. The client has a good deal of trust in the investment firm, but she has also her own ideas about the distribution of funds being invested. In particular, she requests the following: - municipal bonds should constitute at least 20% of the investment - at least 40% of the investment should be placed in a combination of electronic firms, aerospace firms, and drug manufacturers. - no more than 50% of the amount invested in municipal bonds should be placed in nursing home stock. Subject to these constraints, the client's goal is to maximize her return on investments. The investment firm has the following estimated rate of returns on investment choices: 5.3% Electronics Investment Estimated rate of return (%) Los Angeles Municipal Bonds Thompson Electronics 6.8% United Aerospace 4.9% Palmer Drugs 8.4% Happy Days Nursing Homes 11.8% What is the optimal rate of return for the client's portfolio

Acceptance. Altisource Portfolio Solutions, Inc., is a global corporation that provides real property owners with services, such as property preservation—repairs, debris removal, and so on. Lucas Contracting, Inc., is a small trade contractor in Carrollton, Ohio. On behalf of Altisource, Berghorst Enterprises, LLC, hired Lucas to perform preservation work on certain foreclosed properties in eastern Ohio. When Berghorst did not pay for the work, Lucas filed a suit in an Ohio state court against Altisource. Before the trial, Lucas e-mailed the terms of a settlement. The same day, Altisource e-mailed a response that did not challenge or contradict Lucas’s proposal and indicated agreement to it. Two days later, however, Altisource forwarded a settlement document that contained additional terms. Which proposal most likely satisfies the element of agreement to establish a contract? Explain.
Answers
Answer:
Throughout the clarification segment elsewhere here, the definition including its issue is mentioned.
Explanation:
The very first e-mailed submission from Altisource that doesn't even dispute Lucas' suggestion would have been the proposal which most definitely meets the part of the arrangement to create a contract. It is when Altisource's e-mail was approved that they committed to it. Today, if a new arrangement with added provisions is presented two days after ratification, it can not be accepted as an aspect of the binding agreement.If they could have some trouble with the arrangement, they could've just discussed the based distribution and therefore not approved the agreement. It would never be altered until they have approved it but the same could be known as either a contract arrangement.. Which two of the four basic tax planning variables increase the value of Vern's investment? (Select All That Apply).
Answers
Answer and Explanation:
Two tax planning variables that increase investment include:
Time period variable; this variable considers when the transaction occurs during the year and tax is calculated based on this. The present value of tax cost reduces tax cost as tax is not collected immediately but is deferred.
Character variable: this variable considers the nature of the transaction and then taxes based on this, such as income from capital gain when an asset is sold, is taxed differently using a different rate from tax on operating income
Microhard has issued a bond with the following characteristics: Par: $1,000 Time to maturity: 15 years Coupon rate: 7 percent Semiannual payments Calculate the price of this bond if the YTM is 9 percent.
Answers
Answer:
$837.11
Explanation:
The computation of the present value is shown below:
Given that
Future value = $1,000
NPER = 15 × 2 = 30
PMT = $1,000 × 7% ÷ 2 = $35
RATE = 9% ÷ 2 = 4.5%
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(RATE;NPER;PMT;FV;TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the present value is $837.11
The same is to be considered
Royal Enterprises has presented the following information for the past three months operations:
Month Units Average Cost
June 3,300 $ 11.80
July 5,700 $ 7.80
August 6,900 $ 7.00
a. Using the high-low method, calculate the fixed cost per month and variable cost per unit. (Round your variable cost to 2 decimal places.)
b. What would total costs be for a month with 5,300 units produced?
Answers
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Month Units Average Cost
June 3,300 $ 11.80=38,940
July 5,700 $ 7.80 = 44,460
August 6,900 $ 7.00 = 48,300
To calculate the unitary variable cost and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (48,300 - 38,940) / (6,900 - 3,300)
Variable cost per unit= $2.6
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 48,300 - (2.6*6,900)
Fixed costs= $30,360
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 38,940 - (2.6*3,300)
Fixed costs= $30,360
Now, the total cost for 5,300 units:
Total cost= 30,360 + 2.6*5,300
Total cost= $44,140
The funded status of Hilton Paneling Inc.'s defined benefit pension plan and the balances in prior service cost and the net gain–pensions, are given below. ($ in 000s) 2021 2021 Beginning Balances Ending Balances Projected benefit obligation $ 2,300 $ 2,501 Plan assets 2,400 2,591 Funded status 100 90 Prior service cost–AOCI 325 300 Net gain–AOCI 330 300 Retirees were paid $270,000, and the employer contribution to the pension fund was $245,000 at the end of 2021. The expected rate of return on plan assets was 10%, and the actuary’s discount rate is 7%. There were no changes in actuarial estimates and assumptions regarding the PBO. Required: 1. Determine the actual return on plan assets of 2021. 2. Determine the loss or gain on plan assets of 2021. 3. Determine the service cost of 2021. 4. Determine the pension expense of 2021. 5. Average remaining service life of active employees (used to determine amortization of the net gain).
Answers
Answer:
1. Actual return on Plat assets
= Ending plan assets - beginning assets - employer contribution + retirees payment
= 2,591 - 2,400 - 245 + 270
= $216,000
2. Gain(loss) on plan assets
= Actual return - expected return
= 216,000 - (10% * 2,400,000-beginning assets)
= ($24,000) loss
3. Service cost
= Ending Projected benefit obligation - Beginning Projected benefit obligation - Interest cost + Retiree benefits
= 2,501 - 2,300 - (7% * 2,300) + 264
= $304,000
4. Pension expense
= Interest cost + expected return + Amortization of prior service cost + amortization of net gain + Service cost
= Interest cost + expected return + (beginning prior service cost - ending prior cost) + (Beginning net gain - ending net gain - loss on plan asset) + Service cost
= (7% * 2,300) + 240 + (325 - 300) + (330 - 300 - 24) + 304
= $736,000
5. Average remaining service life of active employees
= (Beginning Net gain - expected return) / Amortization of net gain
= (330 - 300) / (330 - 300 - 24)
= 5 years
